Milwaukee, Wis. - In the first half of Thursday's contest against UW-Milwaukee, the University of Illinois at Chicago women's basketball team enjoyed one of their finest shooting performances of the season, shooting a blistering 56.3% from the field.

The Panthers, however, quickly put a screeching halt to the Flames' torrid pace as they held UIC to four field goals over the final eight minutes of the second half and shot 52% from the field themselves in the final stanza on their way to the 76-68 Horizon League victory at the Klotsche Center.

UWM sophomore forward Megan Rogers led the way for the Panthers with a game-high 21 points, including four treys, off the bench, while sophomore guard Kiley Johnson tallied 18 points and four three-pointers. Rogers and Johnson combined to shoot 47.0% (8-for-17) from three-point land.
